To clear up some of the confusion: I only looked at Microwindows.
I did not look at DinX. All of the licensing questions I brought up were
directed towards Microwindows' MPL+GPL option license.
Nano-X is the API we'd use *if* we port GDK to Microwindows.
Nano-X is a part of Microwindows.
I will contact the Microwindows maintainer to ask him if
distributing Microwindows under the LGPL is an option; that would allow us
to distribute Microwindows with GDK, as part of the GDK library--and
hence, we could effectively claim Linux framebuffer support (instead of
claiming Microwindows support, which happens to run on the Linux
framebuffer).
